Al Nassr Sack 3 Female Employees in Saudi Arabia Due to CEO’s Decision Sparking Controversy

Al Nassr has recently faced a series of controversies about its management. The latest development involves the women’s team, which was established just last year in September. In a surprising and unfortunate turn of events, the CEO of Al Nassr has decided to terminate the contracts of three females from the team.

Despite being a relatively new team, the Al Nassr women have achieved significant success and are even outperforming the Cristiano Ronaldo-led men’s team. The team currently holds the top position, while the men’s team is in second place in their respective leagues. Then why were people relieved of their duties?

Al Nassr CEO fired 3 women despite a successful stint

Recent reports suggest that due to a decision made by Al Nassr CEO, Guido Fienga, the team has let go of 3 women from the team. All these employees were responsible for managing the women’s team. This surprise move has raised eyebrows and stirred up a storm of criticism. What makes it so controversial is the lack of clarity regarding the reasons behind the dismissals. While no official reason has been provided, it is difficult to fathom why these females were let go, especially considering the achievements of the team.

Last season, they emerged as the first-ever winners of the Saudi Women’s Football Championship. This season too, the Al Nassr women’s team has remained undefeated. This update has also faced a backlash from fans, who have taken to social media platform X to express their dissent. One fan expressed confusion, questioning, “For what reason did he dismiss them?” 

Fans will have to await the club’s official announcement to know of the reason. While the official explanation has not been provided, there is a possibility that it may be related to cost-cutting measures implemented by the Saudi club as suggested by their move to cut on bonuses of the players.
